XZ Utils is free general-purpose data compression software with a
high compression ratio. XZ Utils is the successor to LZMA Utils.
The core of the XZ Utils compression code is based on the LZMA SDK.
The primary compression algorithm is currently LZMA2, which is used
inside the .xz container format. With typical files, XZ Utils
creates output 30% smaller than gzip and 15% smaller than bzip2.
The XZ Utils package consists of several components:
* liblzma is a compression library with an API similar to that of zlib.
* xz is a command line tool with syntax similar to that of gzip.
* xzdec is a decompression-only tool smaller than the full-featured xz tool.
* A set of shell scripts (xzgrep, xzdiff, etc.) have been adapted
from gzip to ease viewing, grepping, and comparing compressed files.
* Emulation of the command line tools of LZMA Utils eases transition
from LZMA Utils to XZ Utils.

Update to 5.0.1. User-visible changes:
* xz --force now (de)compresses files that have setuid, setgid,
or sticky bit set and files that have multiple hard links.
The man page had it documented this way already, but the code
had a bug.
* gzip and bzip2 support in xzdiff was fixed.

Update to 4.999.9beta.
This is the last beta release before XZ Utils 5.0.0. No big changes
are planned before the first stable release.
XZ Utils is the official successor to LZMA Utils.
